Hi Frank,
Thanks for your reply.
Yes, but we all know there are quite some non-compliant dns-servers out
there. Do they want to break the largest zone for a few days for all
non-compliant servers?
The serial should not be of any importance except to the .com & .net slave
nameservers. To my knowledge, these are all managed by Verisign, so this
should just be a purely internal operation. I really don't see the
problems here most of you are referring to.
Oh, wait, right, they don't care if they break stuff...
I believe they have a pretty good business case for keeping it in a
working state.
Best regards,
Maarten
